Replace "args.logfd" with "pmb.helpers.logging.logfd" in order to avoid
passing "args" to all functions that only use it to write to logfd. This
is the first step to get rid of this args-passed-to-all-functions
pattern in pmbootstrap.
The -p arg is suppose to point to the folder where the dtc program
resides (if it is not found in PATH). If we use an _outdir, which the
template currently does, then the arg needs to be -p
$_outdir/scripts/dtc/, and not -p scripts/dtc/, as scripts/dtc/ only
contains the dtc source code.
The python variant of dtbTool, that we currently use, does not use
this arg as it does not run dtc in a shell. I suppose the argument
was added only for compatibility with other dtbtools.
Generate APKBUILDs with dependencies sorted and placed one per line.
The dependency lists changed are
- depends in pmb/aportgen/device.py
- makedepends in pmb/aportgen/linux.py
Sort dependency lists in test/test_aportgen_device_wizard.py
assertions.
Adds QCDT templates for Spreadtrum and Exynos SoCs
When "pmbootstrap init" is executed, after the boot image analysis,
if the device is QCDT, then the user is asked about the SoC vendor.
Example:
[HH:MM:SS] SoC vendor (spreadtrum/exynos/other) [other]: exynos
After that, the corresponding template is picked.
Most device ports that are added to pmaports (particularly the testing
category) are not actually "maintained". Many of them are never updated
after the initial contribution. There is little reason to list a
"Maintainer:" if the device package is actually not actively maintained
by that person.
Let's stop generating the Maintainer: line by default.
Instead, contributors should add the lines themselves if they are willing
to (actively) maintain the device package for a longer period of time.
Once they no longer want to maintain the package, the Maintainer:
line should be removed again.
Many of the multi-line strings already contain a new line at the
end of the file. When using .split("\n") this will result in an empty
line at the end of the file that is again followed by a new line.
In other words: we have two new lines at the end, which looks weird.
.rstrip() the whitespace at the end of the string to avoid this.
Have explicit selection of the "native" cross compilation method with a
new "pmb:cross-native" option. Deprecate the implicit pkgname pattern
matching.

Newer kernels require "bison" and "flex", so to easy porting we should
add them to generated APKBUILDs by default. While we are it, clean up
the default set of dependencies a bit:
- installkernel is only needed when using "make zinstall", which
we are not using in downstream_package (it requires special kernel
configuration, so it's not really suitable for downstream...)
- most kernels seem to compile fine without gmp-dev and elfutils-dev,
so they should only be added when needed
- the kernel has its own headers, why do we need linux-headers?
(probably copied from Alpine, but anyway...)
- add openssl-dev since it is needed for building/signing kernel modules
Useful reference: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/changes.html
Although it mentions much more than what is really needed...
Building the QCDT image in build() complicates use of envkernel.sh
- in that case, make is done independently of the APKBUILD, and only
the package() function is run to assemble the kernel package.
Building it entirely in package() allows using envkernel.sh without
having to set up some "post make script" (see
https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Compiling_kernels_with_envkernel.sh#Post_make_scripts).
package() might actually fit better in general, since QCDT is only
a special "package" format for (multiple) DTB files at the end :)
While at it, also remove unnecessary "#!/usr/bin/env python3" in files
that only get imported, and adjust other empty/comment lines in the
beginnings of the files for consistency.
This makes files easier to read, and makes the pmbootstrap codebase more
consistent with the build.postmarketos.org codebase.
Avoid generating an APKBUILD with the following linting issues:
- unnecesary usage of braces: ${_flavor}
- unnecesary usage of braces: ${arch}
- unnecesary usage of braces: ${_commit}
- unnecesary usage of braces: ${_repository}
* create symlinks to the GCC8 patches (introduced in pmaports!35)
* link to the new vendorkernel reference wiki page
* use SPDX license in the license= field
* add comment above the compiler section of the APKBUILD
* remove empty line at the end of the APKBUILD
The linux APKBUILDs write the kernel config either to `$builddir`
(default from the template) or `$srcdir/build` (legacy, and I reverted
to that in #1556, which was not the proper fix for this regression).
With this commit, `pmbootstrap kconfig edit` is able to edit both
versions, and prints a note when the APKBUILD is still using the old
style.
Some kernels have a different `KBUILD_OUTPUT` path (e.g. #1551). When
the output path is different from `$srcdir/build`, then
`pmbootstrap kconfig edit` will not work (same with the previous
`pmbootstrap menuconfig` implementation).
This commit forces the output path to be `$srcdir/build` in the template
for new kernel aports, so we won't have that issue with future ports.
* change "pmbootstrap kconfig_check" to "pmbootstrap kconfig check"
* change "pmbootstrap menuconfig" to "pmbootstrap kconfig edit [-x|-g]"
(with legacy alias, because the first syntax was referenced to a lot)
* enable X11 interfaces: -x: xconfig, -g: gconfig
* new function to copy the xauthority file:
pmb.chroot.other.copy_xauthority()
* remove menufconfig() function from the kernel template and all kernel
aports ([skip ci] because it would rebuild all kernels and run out of
time). Alpine has dropped this as well, and it wouldn't work with the
new code anyway.
* pmbootstrap: __config_.py - update the deviceinfo_attributes table
Add missing attributes:
* "screen_width"
* "screen_height"
* "dev_touchscreen"
* "dev_touchscreen_calibration"
* "dev_keyboard"
* "bootimg_qcdt"
Reorder the list to correspond to pmb/aportgen/device.py
Add a comment in the aforementioned file to avoid forgetting to update
this list.

* pmbootstrap: add qcdt generation to the linux aportgen APKBUILDs
This checks the next box in #688
When the device has bootimg_qcdt set to true, the following is done to
the linux APKBUILD:
* Add dtbtool to makedepends
* Call dtbTool during build() to generate dt.img
* Add the generated dt.img in the package's boot/dt.img

This reverts commit 99d7b58ee5.
People usually add manufacturer name in the phone full name which
results in having manufacturer written double in pkdesc (e.g. `Samsung
Samsung Galaxy Mini 2`)
* pmbootstrap init: Generate new port device- and linux-package
* adds `pmbootstrap aportgen device-*` and
`pmbootstrap aportgen linux-*`
* ask for confirmation when selecting a non-existing device
* generate the packages directly from init
* refactor aportgen code
* fixed some easy things in the linux- APKBUILD (more to come in
follow-up PRs!)
Testing:
* Test all questions to the user from pmb.config.init and pmb.aportgen.device
(except for the timezone question, because we would need to monkeypatch the
os.path.exists() function, which messes up pytest, so we'd need to refactor
the timezone function to be more testsuite friendly first)
* Run the device wizard in a testcase a few times and check the output, that
pmbootstrap.aportgen.device and pmbootstrap.aportgen.linux create by parsing
the resulting APKBUILDs and deviceinfo and checking its contents.
* Build the generated device package once in the same testcase
